Just a quick heads up that I threw together a new website for 8205 Recordings: http://8205.blogtotheoldskool.com The site is pretty boring/basic, but it has all the important info for the label.

Persian Prince, Bizzy B & D-Lux – The Lost DATs Volume 1
Finally get to spill the beans about a really cool release done by Persian Prince, who I’ve posted about before here and here due to a number of wicked singles he did back in the day. For this EP, Persian Prince has tracked down some classic long-lost tunes on DAT, and pressed them in a…

More new release / bandcamp greatness…. it looks like Neil Trix is repressing “The Core” soon!! Def worth nabbing as the original is quite hard to find (there’s a black vinyl copy which is a bit cheaper but has been confirmed by Neil to be a bootleg) and these are two of the most essential…

Supertouch “Dreams” (KVA002) Back for Sale & Giveaway
Back in July, I posted about the new Supertouch “Dreams” EP which was released on KVA002. This was an entirely pre-release funded record, where all copies were bought up before the pressing even happened. That record has since been released, and, as expected, looks and sounds great.

Free Halloween Darkside Comp featuring FX, Tim Reaper, Sully & more
A couple weeks ago during my radio show, someone (Paweł?) asked if there was going to be a blog to the oldskool darkside mix for Halloween this year. That got me wondering if, rather than just doing a set, I could pull together an entire compilation in time the holiday. I sent out a few…
